The All-New Prelude: Drive Modes

[Music] The Prelude’s hybrid powertrain isn’t just efficient, it’s expressive. And with three distinct drive modes, plus a customizable individual setting, you can tailor the driving experience to match your mood or the road. There are three main personalities, comfort, GT, and sport, along with the individual mode that lets you customize your own. In comfort, everything is tuned for relaxation. Steering is light, throttle is easy, and suspension is soft. Even the hybrid system prioritizes electric only driving at low speeds, keeping things quiet and serene. It’s the prelude at its most laid-back. GT mode steps it up. Balance is the name of the game. It’s refined, composed, and responsive. Ready for a twisty road or a longer haul. Steering and suspension tighten slightly. Throttle sharpens. A great everyday setting with just the right amount of edge. Sport mode brings maximum performance. Everything firms up, sharpens, and wakes up. Throttle response is quicker. Suspension stiffens, and engine sound is enhanced through the audio system. Individual lets you mix and match the elements you want. Make it yours. Want high assist steering with soft suspension and red gauges? No problem. Just set your preferences and Prelude will save your settings in individual mode, ready to access for future drives. Kicking things up a notch, Prelude comes equipped with an all-new feature, the S+ shift system, which enhances vehicle attributes according to the mode you’re in. For more information on S+, please watch the S+ shift system video in this series. No matter your mood or mission, there’s a drive mode to match. And the best part, you’re always just one click away.
